The guards not only asked questions but also shone a searchlight on the car window, instantly causing a stir among the zombies surrounding the vehicle.
If it weren't for the various protective measures installed on the car...
The sheer number of zombies surrounding the car was enough to send chills down your spine.
Yan Han raised his hand to block the beam of light, and after his eyes adjusted to the bright light, he spoke to the guard: "We were ambushed on the way and several of our brothers died, so we came back ahead of schedule."
The gatekeeper's voice turned cold: "The boss hates losing the most."
The leader of the masked men particularly hates failure. For example, last time they kidnapped Old Man Chi and took him to the neighborhood to provoke him, but only one of the two carloads of men returned.
The last people who returned in that car were all thrown into a pile of zombies by their leader.
Fortunately, Yan Han had already come up with a plan with Qiao An'an and the others before they arrived: "Although we lost several brothers, they didn't fare much better. Not only were they wiped out by us, but their leader was also captured alive."
The guard shone his searchlight into the car again, and after seeing Chen Zhou strapped to the back seat, he nodded: "Wait for me to open the door for you."
Chi Ming started the truck, smashing through several zombies before heading straight for the iron gate.
As soon as the gate opened, he stepped on the gas and sped inside. The guards closed the outermost iron gate as soon as the truck arrived, but some zombies still managed to get in.
Those guarding the wall immediately opened fire and killed the zombies that were entering.
After all the zombies that had come in with the car were killed, the second iron gate was slowly opened.
Chi Mingcai then started the car and entered the second iron gate.
I parked the car in the location Yan Han had indicated.
When getting off the vehicle, Chi Ming made a point of unlocking the rear compartment, patted the metal of the compartment, and told the people in the back compartment: "The compartment faces the courtyard wall. There are no guards on it, but there are several patrolling guards in front of the vehicle. Make sure you check carefully before you come out."
After Chi Ming finished doing all this, he followed Yan Han into the prison.
As he left, he couldn't help but look back every few steps. His daughter was still in the back of the car; he hoped she wouldn't be spotted by the patrol.
Inside the carriage, the only place where Qiao An'an and the others could see outside was through the glass connecting the carriage to the driver's cab. Through that glass, they could see the driver's cab and the situation outside.
However, the field of vision will be much smaller.
But that's enough.
The car had just stopped, and the guards were still loitering nearby. Getting out of the car now would be too conspicuous, so they had to wait.
The group could only watch as Chen Zhou and his party entered the prison.
Qiao An'an noticed that there were guards at the prison gate, and she said with great concern, "There are guards at the prison gate. Even if the patrol leaves in a while and we get out of the car, we won't be able to get in..."
Fang Yuyang carefully examined the layout of the prison through the glass of the truck bed, and then said, "This row of trucks is all parked. We can use the trucks as cover to walk to the side of the prison building, and then climb up from the second-floor window."
This prison building is quite different from the buildings of normal rooms.
The windows on the second floor were built very high.
It is at least five meters above ground level.
At such a height, even if Fang Yuyang could climb up, it would be difficult for Qiao An'an and Chi Xiaoyu to do so.
Qiao An'an said, "I can't get up there."
Even Yan Ling, who is very skilled in combat, shook his head when he looked at that height: "That's too high."
Fang Yuyang seriously offered a solution: "I'll be your stepping stone. You can jump up on my shoulders, and then I'll take a running start before you pull me up."
Qiao An'an: "I haven't received any professional training. Even if you asked me to be your scapegoat, I couldn't get up there..."
This is indeed a problem.
Fang Yuyang suddenly realized that he seemed to be the only one here who had received professional training in climbing walls: "But we can't get in through the main gate. If we can't enter the prison from the second floor, we won't be able to meet up with Shen Zhou and the others. How will the four of them carry out the plan?"
Chi Xiaoyu, who had been silent until now, spoke up: "There's a balcony in front of the second-floor window. I can tie a rope to the back of the arrow, shoot it onto the second-floor balcony and secure it there. That way, we can pull ourselves up to the second floor by the rope."
Everyone thought it was a good idea: "We should give it a try."
While Qiao An'an and the others were discussing how to get into prison.
Shen Zhou and the others had already gone inside.
We came from here before the severe cold, so we didn't feel anything special.
It was the first time Shen Zhou and his group had entered this place, and they were all quite surprised by the scene.
After entering, there is a large hall. Judging from the current situation, it should be dinner time. Many people wearing ghost masks are eating in the hall (the masks cover most of their faces, with their mouths exposed). There are also many women and children serving them. If these women and children do anything that does not meet the expectations of the masked people, they will be beaten.
And those women and children who served the masked man well.
The masked man would take a small piece of food from his plate and throw it on the ground, making his servants crawl on the ground like dogs to snatch it.
This is too much! Li Jianguo clenched his fists as he watched, but Chi Ming whispered behind him, "Please don't act impulsively..."
Meanwhile, the masked man who was eating also noticed the group of people who had entered.
These people were not interested in the masked man who had come in.
But all eyes turned to the sunken ship, its hands bound, and someone asked, "New cargo?"
After receiving Yan Han's affirmative reply, the masked men pushed aside their unfinished plates and stood up, exclaiming, "This is going to be good!!!"
The women and children surrounding these people, seeing that they were not going to continue eating and were about to leave, all rushed forward to grab the food from the plates.
There are fewer masked men than women and children in this place.
But the women and children here have to clean, wash clothes, and cook every day, yet they don't get food or water.
They could only sit by the masked man's dining table every day.
Waiting for alms.
Extreme hunger forced them to fight over leftover food like animals.
Shen Zhou and the others couldn't bear to watch any longer and could only silently withdraw their gaze.
Qi Feng asked from behind Yan Han, "Did your younger siblings live like this back then?"
Yan Han's face turned pale as she was questioned. Scenes from the past flashed before her eyes. Even though Yan Han deliberately left a lot of food uneaten, her younger siblings still couldn't get enough to eat. Her youngest brother was kicked to death by the masked man because he accidentally splashed water on the masked man's shoes while mopping the floor.
He lowered his voice and replied to Qi Feng with a simple "Yes." Fortunately, he was wearing a ghost mask, otherwise his pale face would have aroused the suspicion of the masked men around him.
